We are storyboard artists in animation. During the course of production millions of sketches are produced. Some are used but most are not. These are the ones that "got away" and scribbly scribbles deemed not worthy for prime time.

Here is what happened: Ken Bruce drew a brutal caricature of me in a meeting yesterday. True to form, my response was to draw an even uglier version of myself. Our head of story said that Ken's drawing reminded him of that creepy vetigal twin in "Total Recall". That was all I needed to hear. I think Vestigal twins are neat.

and the HUGE Millenium Falcon and x-wing. Geektopia for sure. I was shooting some digital pics when I remembered reading somewhere that when they built the Rebel Blockade Runner the modelers put a special surprise in the cockpit. So I bent down, snapped this shot and guess what I saw....

There's a joke here somewhere. Any suggestions?

And now for this commercial break...

It was a fun exhibit and I highly reccomend it. Just plan for long lines. The funny thing was that there were more adults than children!

See this is what I'm talking about right here. This is an example of those bits of magic you just throw away and it never sees the light of day??? Probably ending up in the shredder even? Well I rescued this baby yesterday when Bobopoly tossed it in the recycle bin after a screening. Ha! The ghost of scribbles past coming back to haunt you! They're too good to throw away right?

I was watching a few of the John Hodgman clips on Comedy Central.com and I said to myself,"Wow, John Hodgeman has a big head!" So I had to draw it. BTW he's also the PC guy on the Mac commercials if you've been living under a rock for the past few months.
